Chemical Processes 

 

This is your Chemistry 11 Project for Second Term, to be completed on your own time.  You may have your choice of write up:  either as a formal style essay or as a PowerPoint presentation, which you will show to the class.  Each of you has already signed up for some type of chemical process as your topic.  If more time is needed, you are on your own!  This project is due on or before December 16th.  If you choose to do a PowerPoint presentation, please make sure it will work on my school computer.
